As a second Trump administration approaches, we’re running out of time to confirm as many federal judges as possible to provide a check on his presidential power and curb his stated policy priorities.
There are 42 federal judicial vacancies and 13 nominations before the Senate right now—as our civil rights hang in the balance, take action now!
In 17 states, families receiving cash assistance via the Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF) program do not receive a benefits increase for a child born while the family is receiving TANF money. These laws are known as “family caps” and are intended to discourage families receiving cash assistance from having more children. Family caps hurt families who are struggling to make ends meet by forcing them to stretch already limited TANF dollars.
This webinar covers:
• Background on why family caps were enacted
• Research showing what effect family caps have had
• Arguments for why family caps should be overturned
• Information about state coalitions that have worked to overturn family caps
• Advice on working with a coalition to overturn family caps in your state
